THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP
This is our best version of the classic party dip. It's savory and creamy with a slight tang from sour cream and Parmesan -- so hard to resist. We like to use frozen whole leaf spinach and chop it ourselves for more control over the finished texture of the dish.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
- Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.
SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP
Spinach artichoke dip has a way of inciting controversy. Should it be served cold or hot? Is it lowbrow or classic? Should it be served in a bread bowl or with tortilla chips? Well, the good news is that there are no wrong answers here, only delicious, creamy dip. This particular one is best served hot (or at least room temperature), but it is also acceptable to spread it on crackers after being chilled. And with the inclusion of fresh spinach, it could almost be described as classy. Use canned artichoke hearts; they've got a tangier flavor and better texture than the frozen ones. If you want to go a step further, transfer it to a skillet and run it under the broiler after cooking, which gives you bubbling dip with a golden top.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring until it's softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add spinach to pot one handful at a time, letting each handful completely wilt before adding the next. Add crushed red pepper, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid from the spinach has evaporated (no need to drain), about 3 minutes. Add artichokes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, just to take the raw edge off the artichokes.
- Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and mozzarella. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until all the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream and pecorino, and season with more salt and pepper. You can certainly eat this dip straight from the pot (or transferred to a serving bowl), but running it under the broiler for a crispy top is also an excellent option. To do so, transfer dip to a small ovenproof skillet (6 to 8 inches). Place in oven and broil until the top is golden and the dip is bubbling, 5 to 8 minutes. Let sit a minute or two before serving.

ALMOST-FAMOUS SPINACH-ARTICHOKE DIP
Houston's hugely popular spinach-and-artichoke appetizer wasn't always such a crowd pleaser. It started as a lowly side dish in the mid '80s, after Houston's first opened in Nashville, and it came dangerously close to disappearing from the menu altogether until chefs at the restaurant's Chicago outpost noticed customers ordering it with chips and eating it like a dip. The chefs tweaked founder George Biel's recipe and gave it a snappy name, Chicago- Style Spinach Dip, and it became an instant hit. Some fans, like Isabel Mondejo from Orlando, FL, can't get enough of it and wrote to us asking for the recipe. The company wouldn't divulge its secrets, so the chefs in Food Network Kitchens created this perfect imitation.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Stir in the spinach and cook until bright green, about 30 seconds. Drain and rinse under cold water; squeeze out the excess moisture, then finely chop.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until the onion is soft, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Parmesan and sour cream.
- Return the pot to medium heat. Add the spinach, cheddar and artichokes and stir until the cheese melts and the dip is heated through. Serve warm with tortilla chips, salsa and sour cream.

FRESH SPINACH & ARTICHOKE DIP (AKA SHEEP DIP)
Adapted from Best of the Best from Colorado, this recipe is so named, according to their description, because the recipe poster's father was a sheep rancher. This is supposedly a best selling recipe on the menu at River City Cafe in Colorado. I have not tried this yet, but since any spinach dip calling for fresh spinach appeals to me, I wanted to share it. This is very different from the usual spinach dips. I have never seen another version quite like this one. I am guessing at the cook time, which I will update once I try this. This makes enough dip for your whole herd! ;). To me, this is perfect football party food!

Steps:
- 1. BOILING STEP: Fresh artichoke, lemon, minced garlic, salt, and bay leaf- Trim and clean fresh artichoke leaving stem on. Add two slices of lemon, 1 Tsp of minced garlic, salt, bay leaf, pinch of black pepper to boiling water. ( enough water to cover the whole artichoke in the pot) Also squeeze the rest of lemon juice in to water. Boil at a high simmer for 25-40 mins ..it very on time because of size of the artichoke. please watch vid of more tips. Fresh artichoke is done when you poke threw the stem with a knife. If needing tips on how to clean, prep and boil fresh artichoke go to the link below http://www.oceanmist.com/products/how-to-prepare/how-to-boil-an-artichoke.aspx To get the heart of the artichoke.Pull off outer petals, one at a time. You can scrape the white fleshy end with a spoon and use this for your dip. This is tedious part. Continue peeling until all of the petals are removed. With a knife or spoon, scrape out and discard the inedible fuzzy part (the "choke"). This fuzzy part covers the artichoke heart. The remaining bottom of the artichoke is the delicious and tender heart. Cut into pieces for this recipe. If skipping fresh boiling step just chop 14 oz jar of prepared artichoke set aside
- 2. Butter, onions, minced garlic- add butter to skillet and sauté onions and 1/2 T of minced garlic just until soft Pre heat oven at 400
- 3. In a mixing bowl add sour cream, mayo, parmesan cheese, dijon mustard, parsley, thyme, only 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, saute onions and garlic, and prepared cooked artichokes. Mix well add to small baking dish top with remainder of mozzarella cheese.
- 4. bake at 400 for 10-12 mins then turn on broiler for an extra 5 mins until cheese is bubble and melted ( I serve with french bread and or chips & crackers )
Tips:
- Choose fresh artichokes: Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size, have tightly closed leaves, and have a bright green color.
- Prepare the artichokes properly: Trim the artichokes by removing the tough outer leaves and the sharp thorns at the top. Cut the artichokes in half and scoop out the fuzzy choke in the center.
- Steam the artichokes: Steaming is the best way to cook artichokes. It helps to preserve their delicate flavor and texture. Steam the artichokes for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender.
- Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of your dip. Use a cheese that is flavorful and melts well, such as Parmesan, Gruyère, or fontina.
- Add some fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, or thyme, can add a pop of flavor to your dip. Stir them in just before serving.

Artichoke dip with fresh spinach is a delicious and versatile appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste.
